The History:
Grand Central is more than a place to live it is part of Melbourne's architectural history.
Originally constructed as the Victorian Railways Administration Building, the landmark building dates from the late nineteenth century, with its original construction completed in 1893. Further floors were added in 1912 and 1922 as the Victorian Railways expanded.
After the railway offices eventually vacated the building, the landmark faced an uncertain future before being carefully transformed and restored during the 1990s.
The result is Grand Central Apartments a distinctive residential address where historic architecture and contemporary living exist side by side.
For residents, that means owning a home within a building with genuine provenance, character and a story that cannot be recreated in a modern development.
